Overview
Regenerative therapy is an innovative process that utilizes an individual's own cells to promote healing within their body. Scientists have found that regenerative therapy permits the body to heal itself using concentrated cells that can be harvested from several areas on their body, such as the bone marrow or adipose tissue. At Jansen, Tandon, and Guste Plastic Surgery, we offer regenerative therapy for cosmetic purposes, as well as joint pain management. Our team has seen exciting improvements to patients' complexions, as well as a stark decrease in joint pain. Beginning with a consultation to discuss your concerns and medical history, one of our experienced physicians can create a regenerative therapy treatment plan for New Orleans, LA area men and women who desire a natural solution for pain management and skin rejuvenation.
Procedure Technique
Regenerative therapy uses Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) fat cells that are obtained from one of several locations in your body, typically the abdomen, hip, or thigh. Once we have safely aspirated the cells, we will concentrate them and inject them back into your body in the desired area. The face for facial rejuvenation, the knee,hip or base of thumb for arthritic joint problems. At Jansen, Tandon, and Guste Plastic Surgery, we most commonly treat arthritic joints, knees, hips, as well as the facial skin for cosmetic rejuvenation. The process may take up to an hour from the time of aspiration to the injection of the SVF.
During/After Procedure
Once your procedure has been completed, a member of our team will allow you to rest for a little while before leaving our facility. Before you leave to return home, a customized aftercare plan will be given to you to help your SVF harvest site heal quickly and without incident. You may be asked to return to Jansen, Tandon, and Guste Plastic Surgery for follow-up appointments so that our surgeons can check on the progress of your healing. Patients should carefully follow all post-procedure instructions to ensure a seamless recovery.
JTG Plastic Surgery Our Reviews
Been with Dr Jansen for four years. He was a great dr to have on my side.
Dr. Tandon has been so kind and friendly to me over the past 4 years. Him and his staff, especially Shannon, treated me like family. I'm gonna miss seeing them but I'm glad my journey is done and everything is good.
Dr. Ravi Tandon has been nothing short of incredible. He was recommended to me by my surgical oncologist once I decided to undergo a preventive mastectomy and DIEP flap. I knew immediately after my consultation that he was the doctor for me. In addition to his impressive accolades and resume, he was patient and took time to answer all of my many questions. He was confident and encouraging, and he was exactly what I was looking for when selecting a doctor for such an intense procedure. My results are incredible. My healing process had no surprises. He and his staff go above and beyond. I truly cannot say enough positive things, and I cannot recommend him enough. I would give him and his team 10 stars if I could!
THE BEST SURGEON HANDS DOWN. VERY PERSONABLE, PROFESSIONAL AND I LOVE HIS TEAM AT HIS OFFICE....
Dr. Tandon and his staff are the reason I never had a minute of concern about my post double mastectomy breast reconstruction. They are quick to respond to concerns and really listen to the patient. The office is a well-oiled machine and two years past my surgery date they still remember me. And Dr. T's work is top notch -- the new girls are OUTSTANDING!

Frequently Asked Questions
What About Rejection?
Because the SVF cells are being harvested from your own body and returned to your body, they will not be rejected. Rejection is only seen in cases where cells are harvested from a donor. Our team will be happy to explain this to you in detail during a consultation at our New Orleans, LA facility.
How Many Treatments?
As each patient is unique, we do not ensure that any number of treatments will cure your condition. However, we can inform you that in many cases, joints loss stabilizes and skin heals in as few as one treatment with regenerative therapy. Regardless, at your consultation, one of the Jansen, Tandon, and Guste Plastic Surgery physicians will create a customized treatment plan that is unique to your specific needs and concerns. Your plan may include one or several treatments, depending on your condition.
How Much Does it Cost?
The only way to give you a precise price is to meet with you during a consultation. After an evaluation by one of our plastic surgeons, we can create a customized treatment plan that includes the number of injections that are recommended for your condition. After these factors have been determined, a member of our team can help you to understand the cost of your services, as well as the payment methods we accept at Jansen, Tandon, and Guste Plastic Surgery.
What Can I Expect?
The results of your regenerative therapy will vary according to the purpose of the treatment, the severity of the condition being treated, and the location of the treatment area. We have found that many patients have a very fast and positive response to the therapy with some patients finding full relief in as little as only one treatment.
